Unlocked Dell Streak release imminent

Dell has announced that its Streak Android MID is set to arrive in the US in unlocked form later this month, though the company is still yet to confirm pricing. The 5-inch Android tablet is currently available for pre-sale registration; we're yet to see it launch on AT&T as was tipped to occur earlier in July.

As with the European Streak, which we reviewed last month, the US version has a 3G modem (suited to AT&T's 3G bands), WiFi b/g, Bluetooth and GPS, along with a 5-megapixel rear-facing camera with autofocus and an LED flash, a front-facing video call camera, and a customized version of Android 1.6. Dell has promised an update to Android 2.x later in the year, though there's no definitive timescale for its release.
